I am to get a 15 day delay enroute on returning. That means practically a full 15 days at home since I will be routed through Chicago. Good deal, eh! I'm not sure of the length of school, but was told to be approx. 30 days. I'll stop in and say hello while home. Say, there must be a little H20 upon the earths surface around there. I heard the report of the heavy waters in south east Iowa on the radio three days ago. So "Rod" Eicher is home. I'd sure like to see him. Say hello for me if he's still at home. So "Pat" Reynolds thinks some boys are doing a little "Browning" to stay on this side. Well, I'm afraid he's a little wrong as far as boys around here are concerned. Several have been here for two years, since the field opened and have tried every angle to get out. Especially to Gunnery
